August 18, 1920 - The 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was ratified, granting women the right to vote.
August 17, 1943 - During World War II in Europe, the Allies completed the conquest of the island of Sicily after just 38 days. This gave the Allies control of the Mediterranean and also led to the downfall of Benito Mussolini and Italy`s eventual withdrawal from the war. However, the Germans managed to evacuate 39,569 troops, 47 tanks, 94 heavy guns, over 9,000 vehicles and 2,000 tons of ammunition back to the Italian mainland from Sicily.
🚨 NEW LEGISLATION INTRODUCED 🚨
SB964 – Foreign Law Protection Act
Prime Sponsor: Senator Doug Mastriano
Pennsylvania’s laws must be rooted in our Constitutions – never foreign laws that undermine the freedoms we hold dear.
SB964 protects Pennsylvanians from the influence of foreign legal systems that allow barbaric practices like:
❌ Beheadings
❌ Stoning
❌ Amputations
❌ Female genital mutilation
❌ Forced religious conversions
❌ Systematic denial of women’s rights
Fifteen states have already acted to safeguard their citizens. It’s time Pennsylvania does the same.
This legislation is about protecting human rights, preserving our constitutional freedoms, and defending the integrity of our courts.
🇺🇸 No foreign laws. Ever. Only the U.S. and Pennsylvania Constitutions.
